How about having the Spoon rims powdercoated or polished?

Those are some pretty $$$ ricer hubcaps, bro!

o.k. plan B -

Topfuel is looking for Spoon rims. Sell 'em and order some totally pimp HRE's or Kinesis rims.

Tell him I'll trade him my wheels for his ITBs.

I'm after performance, not bling bling.

hmmm... there's a thread in the Racing/Competition forum about some custom rims being made by a raceshop.

One of our locals (Bannanie) and her husband are *serious* auto-xers and the shop is putting together some race wheels for them.

That might be a possibility.

How much do the '04 rims weigh? I actually like the looks of them.

Me too, but that's too convservative for my taste.

Annie isn't that much of a racer. She's only SoloII Nat'l Champion.

On a similar note, there's this one chick in a Hyundai Tiburon that never lets me rest easy at every track day I go to - and that's a lot. She is FAST. Some of my most heated battles (though they're highly illegal at DE events ) involved no other than that feisty little girl. She's pretty cute, too!

And I'm not slow, either. Speaks volumes for her capabilities as a driver and tuner (she does all her work herself).







Come to think of it, she's the idealized woman! Great body, cute southern accent, amazing skills as a driver, down to Earth (not to be cliche), and one hell of a gearhead!

Almost too good to be true!

She must be badass if she is keeping up in a Tibby!

I never thought I'd be doing this...
